  • Apathy?

    I know I am there. I don't want to be but I have just seen the same (stuff) for far too long to really care anymore.

    Where are you at with regards to this?

      I find myself respecting ndsu more than uni. They are what uni could have been.

      They felt closer to the title with terry Allen as coach. At least his offenses were kick ass.

      I realize technically Farley got closer but the program is now below what terry Allen had built it up to.

        Far from apathetic.

        But I would like to see UNI compete with an offensive scheme that has the sophistication to win at this level. And run it for an entire game.

        If Baileys the guy...open up the play book and let him run it. If he's not, play Dunne. But that crap they rolled out there in the 3rd quarter is the same s*** we've seen the last 6 years and it blows. It gets you beat.
        Winning is more fun than losing.

          I don't know if it is apathy, but I realized a few years ago that if I couldn't just watch the game and enjoy it whether we won or lost that I needed to stop watching. It wasn't worth it. Now I watch and don't have much for expectations. It's still entirely too frustrating or stressful or something to watch games like our last 2.

            Yea I'm not sure apathy is the correct word. I still care but when you know how the story ends its just hard to really get into it.

                I don't care anymore until either the offense or the coaching staff changes.

                  Prepare to not care for a while, no changes coming from this arrogant regime that is too proud to admit their offensive philosophy is dogsh**. 7-4 is what we will get at best

                    Not to that point. I'm still mad though.

                    Apathy is what ISU-ames football is.

                    The product sucks and they come back and repeat. Little to No Progress will happen with that behavior.

                        Sure ISU-ames did and about time.

                        The new Toledo guy has a 4-6 year meal ticket as long as he can spark anything. Beating one team not named kansas or San Jwuan state will seal the deal.

                        And I did like Paul Roudes he seemed like a solid dude. just not a good fit?

                          Apathy might not be the best word, but disinterest is pretty accurate for where this fan base is headed.

                            Yep, that's the best way to describe it. It's not that I don't care - I'll always care because it's my alma mater. However, I'm kind of down on football lately anyway in general (CTE, etc.), and when my team doesn't do well, it makes it easier to be disinterested.

                            Find out what the other team wants to do, then take it away from them.

                              Disinterested and disengaged. David Harris talked at half-time about how we have plenty of fans, but we need more supporters. Not going to get supporters if there is no product to support.

                              Ben Jacobson coached teams = 2
                              UNI teams coached by everyone ban thinks is better = 0
